Trip to Pisa from Florence with Optional Leaning Tower Admission Ticket
The tower was designed as a circular bell tower with eight floors, each with an open arcade. The tower's design is a unique blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles and also features beautiful ornamental work and sculptures.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is about 57 meters tall, 56.67 meters tall at its highest point, and 55.86 meters tall at its lowest point. However, the tower’s height from the base of its foundation is 58.36 meters, which is the exact height of the Baptistery in Cathedral Square.
Height of the Leaning TowerThe tower is tilted almost 4 degrees, as a result of its unstable foundation. The tilt, which makes it seem as though the tower is defying gravity, has added to its uniqueness and charm, attracting millions of visitors every year.
Tower of Pisa FallThere are two sets of spiral staircases with 251 steps that take you to the top of the tower. As you start climbing the narrow spiral steps to the top of the tower, some people may also start to feel dizzy. There are a few openings and windows in the upper stories of the tower where you can catch your breath before continuing up the stairs.
Inside Leaning Tower of PisaThe Tower of Pisa was designed to be a bell tower for Cathedral Square. Seven bells tuned to the musical scale sit at the top of the tower. Initially, the bells would be swung by rope to ring them, but fearing their vibrations may trigger the collapse of the tower, they are now rung with electronic hammers.

The reason being that the other buildings around the Tower of Pisa are much shorter in comparison. You can view almost the entire city of Pisa from this tower.
The Piazza dei Miracoli, now known as the Piazza del Duomo (the Cathedral Square), got its name from a poet named Gabriele D'Annunzio who called it “Prato dei Miracoli” (Meadow of Miracles). It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Pisa Cathedral, and Pisa Baptistry.
Known as Duomo di Pisa in Italian, this medieval cathedral to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Built using Pisan Romanesque architecture, the Pisa Cathedral is one of the 4 structures in the Cathedral Square of Pisa. It is also the seat of the Archbishop of Pisa.
Known as Battistero di San Giovanni, it is one of the many Roman Catholic structures in Pisa. It is the second building in chronological order in the Piazza dei Miracoli after the Pisa Cathedral. It is the largest baptistery in Italy and depicts the transition from Romanesque style to Gothic style of Italian architecture.
Also known as Camposanto Monumentale, this is a historic cemetery dating back to the 12th century, known for its impressive collection of frescoes and Gothic architecture.
